Yes, the original topic was about electric cars and they will take a lot
more than "a few minutes" to refuel.


Well yes, but I was commenting on a 600 mile range of a conventional car.
Saying I'm not really sure just how necessary that is.

Of course no electric car has anything like the range needed for long
distance travel - even in the UK. I doubt there's one on the market that
could run for a morning at motorway speeds. Although you might think so by
the ads.
